Small patch that fixes the DKMS build issues: https://pastebin.com/TGzhpKSM

Also yeah, the package version is out of date.

1.19.0 is the current version.

I modified f3flight's instructions slightly:

  1. Updated "pkgver" in PKGBUILD
  2. Download the driver from ASIX Electronics Corporation's website (http://www.asix.com.tw/download.php?sub=driverdetail&PItemID=131)
  3. Put the newly calculated sha512sum in the "sha512sums" array in PKGBUILD (replacing the 1st line)

makepkg -si as normal.

@matteoipri Hi. Yes, this is the bug I was talking about. If you haven an idea to fix it, let me know. Otherwise, I'll have to ask on the arch-general mailing list.

Hi wget, maybe this is the bug you are referring to. Everytime there's an update (using `sudo pacman -Syu`) that involves DKMS recompilations I get the following: :: Running pre-transaction hooks... (1/1) Remove DKMS modules ==> dkms remove ax88179_178a-dkms/1.18.0 -k 4.12.12-1-ARCH Error! There is no instance of ax88179_178a-dkms 1.18.0 for kernel 4.12.12-1-ARCH (x86_64) located in the DKMS tree. and :: Running post-transaction hooks...

Trying to reinstall the package after system update with `pacaur asix-ax88179-dkms` I get similar errors: :: Running pre-transaction hooks... (1/1) Remove DKMS modules ==> dkms remove ax88179_178a-dkms/1.18.0 -k 4.12.13-1-ARCH Error! There is no instance of ax88179_178a-dkms 1.18.0 for kernel 4.12.13-1-ARCH (x86_64) located in the DKMS tree. :: Processing package changes...

When I reboot the system hangs on the systemd service for 1m30s and I have to reinstall the package after reboot. Is something wrong on my system or is a common bug? Thanks

I'm aware of a bug. For some reason, the module is not rebuilt after a new kernel has been upgraded. The pacman hook seems to be not triggered properly. Gonna investigate.

@f3flight Thanks for the reminder. I had fixed it locally but forgot to push it :D I'm fixing this :)

f3flight commented on 2017-06-09 16:35 (UTC)

To make this work it's necessary to: 1. update "pkgver" in PKGBUILD - set to the current version available in http://www.asix.com.tw/products.php?op=pItemdetail&PItemID=131;71;112&PLine=71 (1.18.0 as of this writing) 2. download this version from the webside and check md5, put updated md5 in the "md5sums" array in PKGBUILD (replace 1st line) 3. update ax88179_178a-dkms.install - update the version in lines 4, 5, 6 4. check md5 of this file and update md5sums in PKGBUILD (replace 5th line)
